*Is there a [non-preferred] co-pay with forced abortion?
*Exclusive: *Matt Barber*  

Posted: July 25, 2009

The president has more "czars" running around than Mother Russia {ed. 
note: correct transliteration from the Russian cyrillic is actually 
"tsar"].  It's mondo bizarro. Kind of fitting, though; must be a 
communist thing.

Still, as the debate over Obama's multi-trillion dollar pet experiment 
in socialized health care reaches terminal velocity, one of his newest 
czars underscores -- in permanent marker -- the true depth of BHO's 
deep-seated radicalism. His choice of Harvard professor and self-styled 
"neo-Malthusian" John Holdren as "science czar" provides the latest and 
perhaps most troubling example of just how bad America really muffed it 
last November. It could give us a sneak-peak into the not-so-distant 
future should this Obamacare-health-scare become reality.

In the name of population control, Holdren has advocated both forced 
abortion and compulsory sterilization through government-administered 
tainting of the water supply. In a book he co-authored, entitled 
"Ecoscience: Population, Resources, Environment," Holdren calls for a 
"Planetary Regime" to enforce mandatory abortions and limit the use of 
natural resources.

He writes: "There exists ample authority under which population growth 
could be regulated. It has been concluded that compulsory 
population-control laws, even including laws requiring compulsory 
abortion, could be sustained under the existing Constitution if the 
population crisis became sufficiently severe to endanger the society."

Holdren further suggests that since "[a]dding a sterilant to drinking 
water or staple foods is a suggestion that seems to horrify people more 
than most proposals for involuntary fertility control," such an approach 
would have to "meet some rather stiff requirements; ... be uniformly 
effective; ... free of dangerous or unpleasant side effects;" and pass 
both PETA and AARP muster by having "no effect on members of the 
opposite sex, children, old people, pets, or livestock."

Czar Holdren further postulates that "a comprehensive Planetary Regime 
could control the development, administration, conservation, and 
distribution of all natural resources, renewable or nonrenewable. The 
Planetary Regime might be given responsibility for determining the 
optimum population for the world and for each region and for arbitrating 
various countries' shares within their regional limits."

He concludes that "sterilizing women after their second or third child" 
may be more practical than sterilizing men, and proposes a "long-term 
sterilizing capsule that could be implanted under the skin" at puberty 
and then "might be removable, with official permission, for a limited 
number of births.

"Why should the law not be able to prevent a person from having more 
than two children?" he asks, suggesting "that compulsory 
population-control laws, even including laws requiring compulsory 
abortion, could be sustained under the existing Constitution. [N]either 
the Declaration of Independence nor the Constitution mentions a right to 
reproduce," observes the learned professor.

OK, so, by any reasonable standard this guy's an off-the-rails, 
helmet-for-his-own-safety, bona fide barking Moonbat. He makes Ward 
Churchill look like William F. Buckley. He's piggy Napoleon from 
Orwell's "Animal Farm" personified.

But that's not what's so unsettling. There are plenty of nuts in the 
world. In fact, Harvard alone accounts for a significant percentage of 
them. What's utterly horrifying is that our president -- the leader of 
the free world -- would even think, if only for a moment, "Hey, I just 
gotta have that Planetary Regime guy in my administration!" That says a 
lot more about him than it does Herr Holdren. Indeed "birds of a feather 
flock together," and these perching political pigeons look down upon our 
unique American freedoms only to see a newly washed windshield.

Obama's über-extremism continues to astound. The mainstream media can't 
cover it up much longer, and they're finally starting to get that. As 
the left pushes this monolithic socialized health care scheme (imagine 
going to the DMV for your emergency appendectomy), the American people 
are slowly beginning to grasp the radical nature of the minds and 
philosophies behind it.

I'm not saying that forced abortion and compulsory sterilization are an 
express part of Obamacare ... yet. But once again, look who's baking. 
They've already mixed the batter, we've licked the spoon and it tastes 
like ... well, see for yourself:

First, it provides a federal bailout for Planned Parenthood and the rest 
of the multi-billion dollar abortion industry through taxpayer funded 
abortion on demand; ostensibly to include reanimation of the horrific 
and currently banned practice of partial-birth abortion.

The bill requires -- as Democratic Sen. Barbara Mikulski admitted -- 
"any service deemed medically necessary or medically appropriate." This 
means that -- with a loaded IRS to your head -- you, me and every other 
taxpayer gets to be a moral codefendant in abortion homicide. Isn't 
"having the right to choose" wonderful?

Secondly, and as Obama has fundamentally admitted, it will, undeniably, 
necessitate "Animal Farm" style health care rationing for the elderly 
and infirm. Don't forget: "Some animals are more equal than others." Or 
as Obama put it, Grandma may have to forgo "additional tests or 
additional drugs that the evidence shows is not necessarily going to 
improve care. ... Maybe you're better off not having the surgery, but 
taking the painkiller." (Got that? Sorry, Granny, you're 66 years old -- 
no kidney transplant for you. Here's some morphine, now go lie down and 
die.)

But if all that's not enough, the Senate Health, Education, Labor and 
Pension Committee's official summary 
<http://help.senate.gov/Maj_press/2009_07_15_b.pdf> of the bill 
additionally authorizes a CDC-funded "Community Preventive Services Task 
Force ... to improve immunization coverage of children, adolescents, and 
adults ... through the use of evidence-based interventions," up to and 
including, "home visits."

Mom, Dad -- decided against a potentially deadly Gardasil injection for 
your fourth-grade tween? Well, get ready for that needle-ready knock at 
your door from the government vaccination "task force." It's time for 
your "evidence-based intervention." I wonder: Do jackboots go well with 
scrubs?

So let's recap: We have taxpayer-funded abortion, health care rationing 
for the elderly and infirm, and vaccination interventions in your living 
room. I fit all that into one sentence. Obamacare is nearly 1,100 pages 
long, and even the president hasn't read it. I see no evidence anyone has.

But half the fun is in finding out what other gems it holds. Forced 
abortion? Compulsory sterilization? Well, maybe not yet, but is it 
really that much of a stretch? We already know it's on Holdren's 
Christmas list.

Suppose Obama's feeling jolly?

Interesting website in Spanish for arguing the pro-life cause:

Life-sized model of fetus named after Spanish minister who said unborn 
babies not human at 13 weeks 
<http://www.catholicnewsagency.com/new.php?n=16639>

Madrid, Spain, July 23 (CNA <http://www.catholicnewsagency.com/>) .- A 
group of Spanish professionals are using life-sized models of a 13 
week-old fetus to respond to statements by the country's Minister of 
Equality, Bibiana Aido, who said in an interview that fetuses at that 
stage of development are alive but are not human beings.

The group is offering replicas of the "Aido Baby" through its website 
www.bebe-aido.com <http://www.bebe-aido.com/> to help raise awareness 
about the development of the unborn during the first and second 
trimesters of pregnancy.

"Its real size is 5-6 centimeters and all of its organs have already 
been formed. It only needs to mature and grow," the group said.

On May 19, Minister of Equality, Bibiana Aido, said that a 13 week-old 
fetus is alive "but is not a human being, because there is no scientific 
basis for such a claim."

However, organizers of the campaign said science has demonstrated that 
"human life begins at conception. Every manual of human embryology 
states that the zygote is already an unrepeatable human being, unique in 
its species, a different being from the mother and the father."

In addition, they said, at 12 weeks a fetus has a full-formed head, 
eyes, arms, legs, hands, feet and heart. "It can feel as its nervous 
system is well-developed," said Fatima Navarro-Rubio, a spokeswoman for 
the campaign.

"We have made thousands of 'Aido Babies' so that people in Spain can 
determine with their own hands whether or not the 12 week-old baby that 
some don't want to protect is a human being," she added.

The money raised by the campaign will be used to help women in troubled 
pregnancies.
